That's why you can speed up the simulation. Certain portions of flight are dramatically more entertaining than others. So take an hour to boot up the 777 from cold and dark, setup all the computers and management, do all the preflight, manage taxi and takeoff, then run the actual 7 hour flight at 10x speed so you can do the fun landing. But even games that seem like just a job can be fun. Euro Truck simulator is fun because you are entirely self directed. Each job produces tangible results and you feel yourself progressing in a clear way that you often do not feel in a real job.
